I Think It Looks Sharp. Antique-Esque, But In Great Condition. It'S Not A One Dimensional Cold Brass- Its Finish Gives A Multi-Dimensional, Versatile Tone That Compliments Both A Neutral Or Warm Beige Backdrop & A Cooler Gray/Blue Backdrop. Looks More Expensive Than It Is. No Joke: My 91 Years Young, Wwii Veteran Father In Law Carried The Box Inside. Its Light Weight However Does Not Equate To An Inferior-Made Product As It Is Very Stable, Not Wobbly & It Was A Cinch To Attach To A Standard Metal, Bolt-In Bed Frame. Used For A Guest Room (Said Father In Law Is Currently Using).
